MEMBER BANK RESERVES (Pages 2, 3 and 12)

MONEY STOCK (Continued)

Total reserves of member banks averaged $23.8
billion in the four weeks ending July 19, up at a 3
per cent annual rate since April. A major factor
in the recent expansion of bank reserves was increased
holdings of Government securities by the Federal
Reserve System.

since early April and at a 7 per cent rate since
January. By way of contrast, the money stock
rose at a 4 per cent rate from 1964 to 1966 and at
a 3 per cent rate from 1961 to 1964.

Reserves available for private demand deposits
raged $16.2 billion over the four weeks ending July
19.
These reserves, which provide the base for monetary
expansion, increased at a 9 per cent rate since April
and at an 8 per cent rate since January. From 1964 to
1966, reserves available for private demand deposit rose
at a 3 Per cent rate.

VELOCITY OF MONEY (Page 4)

MONEY STOCK

(Pages 5 and 12)

Private demand deposits averaged $137*2 billion
during the four weeks ending July 12, up at a 9 per cent
annual rate since early April and at a 7 per cent rate
since January. These deposits, which comprise about 80 per
cent of the money stock, grew at a 4 per cent rate from
1964 to 1966, after rising at a 2.5 per cent rate from
061 to 1964.
The total money stock, which includes currency
held by the public as well as private demand deposits,
averaged $176.6 billion in the four week period ending
July 12.
Money has increased at an 8 per cent rate

Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

The income velocity of money (gross national
product at current prices divided by the money stock)
was 4.45 during the second quarter of 1967, down
slightly from 4.48 in the first quarter and 4.49 in
the fourth quarter last year. Since 1948, this in­
dicator of money turnover has risen at an annual rate
of about 3.6 per cent. The most recent decline in
velocity occurred despite a first to second quarter
rise of $9 billion in total spending, and reflects
the rapid rate at which the money stock has been
growing in recent months.
Historically, in most periods of monetary
acceleration growth in spending has changed little
initially, while velocity has slowed. However after
a brief lag, both spending and velocity have accelerated.
During the last half of 1964, for example, money in­
creased at a 5 per cent rate, after growing at a 3 per
cent rate from i960 to 1964. Total spending at first
continued to rise at about the 7 per cent rate of the
previous three years and velocity slowed. In 1965,
however, spending increased at a 9.5 per cent rate,
facilitated by an acceleration in money turnover.
